FYI-the leading HQ for Muslims in the U.S is brazenly in full view from the Garden State Parkway by exit 145. I bet if the right folks went in their with blow torches and pliers we could find out a lot to save us future grief and right past wrongs. But that would upset the ACLU and the 'rats so I guess we can't do anything about it.
"Do you see those two buildings?" he asked while pointing toward the World Trade Center. "They won't be standing there next week." It was noon, Sept. 6, 2001.
The kid was Pakistani, not "palestinian," and Pakistan has a great many ties to Al Qaeda and the Taliban through its intelligence arm, the ISI.
I believe the kid's father was in Pakistan on 9-11-2001.

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Arab leaders held a news conference to protest the FBI's actions, calling it an "anti-Muslim witch hunt." They insisted the task force, which also included the Secret Service and the U.S. Customs Service, acted on little evidence, but rather on political pressure and anti-Arab stereotypes. "While Muslims understand the FBI's mission to protect American citizens, we are concerned that the civil liberties of InfoCom's owners and their many important clients were violated by this unexpected raid," the Arab group said in a statement.") by Tim McDonald (SEPTEMBER 7, 2001)

TRADITIONAL VALUES.org: "MUSLIM GROUP'S EDUCATIONAL CAMPAIGN MAY AID EXTREMISTS" (ARTICLE SNIPPET: "CAIR, however, may not be the kind of organization that should be supported by moderate Muslim-Americans or by public libraries. Middle East expert Daniel Pipes ( http://www.danielpipes.org ) has published several exposes on CAIR during the past few years. The most recent was published in April. According to Pipes, CAIR has at least one individual associated with international terrorism on its board of directors. Siraj Wahhaj was named in 1995 by U.S. Attorney Mary Jo White as an unindicted co-conspirator in the attempt by Muslim terrorists to blow up New York monuments. Wahhaj served as a character witness on behalf of convicted Muslim cleric/terrorist Omar Abdel Rahman who masterminded the New York terrorist plot. CAIR has also criticized President Bush's closing down of the Holy Land Foundation, a front group for Hamas terrorists. In 1998, the chairman of CAIR gave a speech to a group of California Muslims and told them: "Islam isn't in America to be equal to any other faith, but to become dominant. The Koran should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on earth."") (091302)
